Hi Vinte, nothing to contribute to this, but am heading up on Wednesday/Thursday for work, and planning on heading out on Wednesday night from Satterthwaite on my have little Grizedale loop, so keen to hear what conditions are like myself.

I was in the area yesterday and the snow is only on the higher mountain tops. I live about 30 minutes away and it has rained all day today so what little ice and snow there was, will have all gone by now. The temperatures are forecast to rise as well.

It'll be very wet but Grizedale bridleways handle it well (bar the North Face!)

Hi guys (particularly GavinB), I had a good ride round Grizedale this morning. The weather was perfect and I only saw maybe two other people in the forest! The bridleways where all in good condition and not too wet in most places. There was no snow or ice.
